Glimpse

Folder: 
Ms. Contradiction

with this strength, i stride away

i take a glimpse of yesterday

i hate pressure, i love your pain

i hate guilt, my feelings erased

anger within myself

wanting and needing

my little fucked joke

so i try to forget

my eyes open to your smile waiting

hoping it's for only me

i take a glimpse and realize

the look of disgust was the look for only me

not the smile, not the joke

just the anger within myself

well, like they say.... assumption is the mother of all fuck ups and when you assume, you make an ass of u and me. but hey, it makes for some interesting poetry all the same. i like the little innuendos and thoughts that swirl around in this poem. self blame, loathing, angst. undecided feelings and odd notions make the poem wanna scratch your head and go huh? but at the same time say, write on.
